Success at Failure
Often, the hardest pill to swallow, the one that sticks in your throat and causes you to nearly choke, is the one that teaches you the best lesson. That was the case for Ol' Albie, a good friend of my parents when I was growing up. He was a success at everything in life. Had a great job, was considered the best in his field, had an amazing car, beautiful wife and three exceptional kids, one of which was my best friend at the time. My father always claimed that Albie was matchless, special and whatnot. I wasn't so sure and felt he was just talking pish.

In Meam Commemorationem
As I stand on the brink, at the breach, I wonder if they will remember, if they will take note of my passing. In a world full of big personalities, big moments, big ideologies, the small and lonely are often the forgotten. I hope I am not. Time will tell.
